He's about 6" and I would like him to go in with my other community...
1x Senegal, 1x Endlie, 1x CK, 2x Blood Parrots, and 2x Geo's
What do you guys think??? I know the only issue may be the Ph....

I know its completely unnatural...but so are my parrots.
 
anyone else.....just may try it !
 
Depends on the pH difference between the two tanks. Also, it probably won't work out if this is meant to be a long-term situation because it would likely eventually be eaten by either the endli or the CK once they get large enough to fit it in their mouths.
 
I agree, gonna keep him in my 75 mbuna tank..where he belongs.
 
my issue would be with it being too aggressive, for captive-bred fish like this pH usually won't be huge issue if acclimated properly
 
Don't forget diet differences. Mbuna get bloat if they eat too many meaty foods.
